Liverpool has made the initial move to replace Jurgen Klopp as manager by hiring a manager with 83 career victories.
As Liverpool begins to get ready for life without Jürgen Klopp at Anfield, they have now been in touch with Xabi Alonso.
That’s what Foot Mercato says.
What’s new with Liverpool and Xabi Alonso, then? Let’s examine this.
Xabi Alonso is contacted by Liverpool
Since Klopp made his announcement that he will be departing Liverpool this summer, the 42-year-old has been seen by many as the front-runner to succeed him.
Foot Mercato reports that the Reds have now been in touch with Alonso.
According to the French news source, Liverpool is now able to move forward with their plans to sign the Spaniard after the current campaign.
But according to reports, Alonso is still happy at Bayer Leverkusen, so for now, it’s just an inquiry from Liverpool rather than something more substantial.
This season, the Tolosa-born tactician has gained recognition in Germany as Bayer Leverkusen has astonishingly yet to drop a game after 30 games.
With 16 victories and 4 ties in 20 games, Alonso has Bayer Leverkusen leading the Bundesliga. The team is also undefeated in the DFB-Pokal and the UEFA Europa League.
The former Liverpool player, who played 210 games, has managed 165 games and overseen 83 victories overall. It is an incredible record to say the least.
Liverpool considers one individual to be a potential replacement for Xabi Alonso.
According to Foot Mercato, Alonso might decide to take over at Real Madrid or Bayern Munich at some point, thus Liverpool would need to find other options.
Gianluigi Longari of TV Dello Sport claims that Ruben Amorim of Sporting CP is one substitute that “stands out” to the Reds.
In Lisbon, the Portuguese strategist has performed admirably, leading Sporting to its first Primeira Liga championship since 2002 in 2021.
As Liverpool looks to appoint Alonso as their top pick, be careful to monitor this development.

Cesc Fabregas explicit on perfect candidate to succeed Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss
After Jurgen Klopp departs Liverpool in the summer of 2020, Cesc Fabregas, a former player for Arsenal and Chelsea, has shared his opinions on who should take over as manager of the team.
When Jurgen Klopp leaves his position as manager of Liverpool at the end of the current campaign, Cesc Fabregas thinks Xabi Alonso would be the perfect successor.
Given his impressive early coaching record, Alonso is one of the early contenders to succeed Klopp. After finishing second last when Alonso took over in October 2022, Bayer Leverkusen is now leading the Bundesliga and two points ahead of Bayern Munich.
Fabregas has outlined Alonso’s qualifications to take over at Anfield the next season, highlighting his intellect, disposition, mindset, and bond with the team from his five years as a player at Liverpool.
According to Fabregas, “he’s a very intelligent guy,” the BBC’s Planet Premier League podcast reported. “There, he has been. He has experienced everything, and he is aware of the high standards Liverpool has established. He is adored by the audience, and as a coach, I believe he is excellent. He has insightful insights.
“He may have a slightly different style of play, but I believe he is versatile. I used to see him around when he was the Real Sociedad B coach and now he works at Bayer Leverkusen. He does diverse actions. He has the correct mindset and can adjust to the circumstances and the various kinds of players he has.
“Despite his youth, he has very distinct ideas, which is a plus. He is a stable, intellectual man with the ideal disposition. Therefore, it’s a big ask, but I think he could pull it off.”
Alonso, however, has downplayed rumours of a possible transfer to Anfield and stated he is still entirely focused on Leverkusen’s pursuit of the league championship. “Speculation is normal, my focus is here on Bayer Leverkusen,” he stated.
“I am currently really content with my players at Leverkusen.” Naturally, there was a lot of surprise in Liverpool. I have a lot of respect and appreciation for what Jurgen accomplished there. Here, I am very content.
“I’m having fun at work here. Every day feels like a challenge to me, and every game is that. I’m travelling through Leverkusen in style. I’m not sure about the next one. I’m reflecting on my current location.
“I’m having fun and I’m at a terrific position. What matters most is Saturday. Right now, I don’t really care what will transpire in the future.”
